jojo is a very young singer. her first album she was 14. she's probably 16 or so on this album, and i think it's an absolutely amazing album. i've listened to it repeatedly at work, working the overnight shift, and closing down the store. it's my absolutely favorite to listen to right now - cover to cover. some of the songs get on my nerves a little - but mostly, that's only if i just stubbed my toe on a t-stand or something. it's poppy, dramatic, sad, slow, fast, edgy, rap-ish, r&b-ish, throwback to early 90's too. i just think it's a beautiful album, and if anyone has the ability to listen to 'exceptional' i would really recommend doing so. it's the perfect love song, or you can think of God saying that to us. i know that's how He feels about me, when i've been redeemed by His blood. if i had found this song before the wedding (and it was right under my nose, because i had other songs by her at the wedding) i would have played this for me and craig's first dance. i just think it's that amazing.
moving along, i am going to work in a couple of hours, and i'm feeling much better today. my throat isn't really sore anymore, and i'm feeling much, much better.
because of how i've been emotionally over the last couple of months, and based on inspiration from craig (my husband) as well as charity's posts, i am strongly considering going on anti-depressants. it's just not getting better, and while i'm not to the point of sitting down and crying over every little thing, i definitely lament stupid little things for hours on end (and even days). i am all over the board emotionally, and i am just so, so tired of being happy one minute and totally sad and in a funk the next. i don't want to be on them for forever - just until i can get balanced back out. i mean - for heaven's sake, i've had a traumatizing life, and i think my sticks are broken. :( how do you get better without medicine? God, i know - but even God used medicine in the bible - with king hezekiah. i learned that from the breaking free book.
speaking of which - is anyone interested in doing that study with me online? i've had a pretty good response - and i'd love to have more join me. :D i think it's going to be an amazing study, and i think that there will be able to be liberty and freedom from it. sometimes, truths are right there and we miss them completely because our eyes just haven't been opened to those things yet. i'm really excited to see how God leads this. :D
i love my pink nintendo ds. i'm really wanting to buy original mario brothers. maybe i'll use some christmas money for that.
whatever i got cash-wise from my family, craig got the same. :D it was seriously awesome! i am so excited, because we'll be able to use the money we got this year for christmas towards our stuff on our registry's. my mom also got us some beautiful chocolate sheets - yummy!! target has the softest sheets ever.
i still don't have a job. if you guys could pray that something would come together here - we're really getting down to the 11th hour.
anyway - i wish i had something profound to say, but i really don't. :(
oh - i know - i want to be commenting on your journals, but time has been short lately. i hope to start responding/commenting sometime this week.
also, i will not be doing the negitive thing. honestly, with where i am emotionally right now, i am just not up to it. i know i have lots of faults - i'm insecure, i can be brash, selfish, moody, i have no concept of time, i am not always dependable etc. i don't need to be told that by everyone on my friends list. :P
i'm still working on the magazine. if anyone is interested in recieving it (free of charge) just let me know, and i'll send it out to you.
okay, that's all. i need to jump in the shower and eat before i go to work.
